Looks like they got heavy with the dzus fastners, that hood isn't coming off @ speed!

One thing that does make me thing of, is a fire system. I'd say it's an absolute must have for something that's going to be that timely to remove the hood... anything ever goes really bad you'll be glad you spent the money on it. Of course, with a build like this, the extra that a fire system will cost, is a mute point.

Thanks bro for the comment ... Don't you worry the first thing we got before the got to the state when I payed chuck to get the parts so it can be ready when the car get from Kuwait to hem is the fire system and it got to Three nozzles in the front one each side and one on the back off the motor . And it got one under the driver leag . And one on the transsmition .. Don't you thing that am going to pay all that money on the car and forget about that thing .

And if you can go back on the first picture you can see the nozzles on the front bars each side

Are you going to do another nose for the car once the bbc and twins go in it? That single turbo inlet will probably look kind of funny if there's twins in there.

I figured you wee on the fire system, I did see the nozzles... but it's one of those things, if someone doesn't say it and for soem unknown reason it gets forgotten, well you know.

I do hear the whole lift off nose deal too, buddy of mine did that with his chevy 2, but it's still not uncommon to just pull the hood when you want to check something quick. you can still do that alone with his car, the nose you need 2 people to take it off.
